Yemen: Emergency Initiatives Appeal

A girl rests next to her mother (not pictured) inside an underground water tunnel with other displaced Yemeni families, after they were forced to flee their home due to ongoing airstrikes in Sanaa on May 2, 2015.

Several emergency initiatives* to assist those affected by the war in Yemen were created, and they deserve your attention if you would like to help in some form or another. You might donate, and remember no donation is ever considered too small, or you might help by spreading the word. All assistance is much appreciated.

The initiatives are the following:-

1) The Yemen Peace Project is working with their partner organization in Aden, House of Light Foundation, to provide essential supplies for women displaced by war in Aden, southern Yemen. Make a donation today to help in taking care of those in need. Fine more details here.
